4noggins Prairie Wind
(3.31)
Three types of Virginia tobaccos, blended with a good amount of Perique, make Prairie Wind easy burning, well balanced, and cool on the palate. A wonderful VaPer for an all day smoke.

A well balanced tobacco, mild but tasteful, sweet but not treacly, with the generous amount of Perique definitely present but not overdosed, and with a very gentle room note. Recommended, without doubt. [All my reviews/ratings are based solely on my personal experience/taste].

This is a great tobacco if you enjoy VA's and I do. This tobacco is easy to pack and once dried for a short period of time it lit easily and stayed lit. Its sweet, citrus note appeals to me and the perique is there, but only as a condiment and only hints of occur when smoke is exhaled via the nose. The perique is not strong and is not over powering in this blend. I believe this tobacco will be even better if you have the patience and discipline to celler it for a year, two or more. The sweetness of the tobacco dissapears when you DGT this tobacco, the VA taste and perique intensifies but still tolerable. I highly recommend it to lovers of VA's. This is a tasty sweet tobacco which I need to order some more of 🙂

I got a sample of this with a tobacco order I put in with 4Noggins, and have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised by this one. It has the smooth sweetness of a well aged VaPer. The tin aroma hits you with a bit of vanilla, but the aroma does not come through in the smoke with nearly the intensity you expect. I am definitely going to get some of this with my next order.

Rich was kind enough to add a sample of this to a recent order from 4noggins. Also in this order was a pound of St. James Flake, which has been sitting idle while I enjoy this Prairie Wind. An excellent smoke all around. It does need a little drying, as the other reviewers have noted. But I'll be ordering more.
